Yep, I would've mentioned it, but here, in our rather scholastic debate, I'm assuming the least convenient possible world for my values - one where technical progress either naturally forms a positive feedback loop with right-wing tyranny/oppression/whatever, or simply moves at a pre-industrial speed. Otherwise I'd just skip ahead & invoke the perspectives of transhumanity, the event horizon, etc.
